Before Inchmurrin, Inchmoan and Croftengea became household names, Loch Lomond's malt was simply called Old Rhosdhu. It was last produced around the year 2000, making every bottle today a small time capsule from the distillery's early years.

Expert's Description

Old Rhosdhu 5 Year Old is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in bourbon casks and bottled at 40%.

Old Rhosdhu was produced shortly after the distillery opened in 1966 and, until around the year 2000, was the name for Loch Lomond's then single malt style. The whisky reflects the distillery's set-up, designed for maximum reflux, giving it its characteristic fruity, floral style.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Floral and fruity with ripe apple, pear and a touch of malt.

Palate

Soft and fruity with honey and light malt, underpinned by a delicate floral sweetness.

Finish

Short to medium finish with lingering fruit and malt.

Investment Potential

Medium – Old Rhosdhu was phased out as a standalone name around the year 2000, and bottles carrying this name are becoming increasingly hard to find, making them interesting to collectors of Loch Lomond's early history.

Did You Know?

Old Rhosdhu was Loch Lomond's original single malt name, before the distillery began naming its various styles after the islands in the loch itself, as with Inchmurrin and Inchmoan.

When an imperial stout meets Oloroso sherry casks, the result is something nutty, a little dry, and impossible to place in a conventional category. Mikkeller and Braunstein found that out firsthand.

Expert description

Oloroso Cask Black Mikkeller Spirits Small Batch is a New Make Malt Spirit at 43%, distilled at Braunstein Distillery from Mikkeller Black imperial stout and briefly matured in Oloroso sherry casks. This collaboration pairs Mikkeller's brewing expertise with Braunstein's distillation knowledge. The Oloroso casks contribute rich, nutty notes and a suggestion of dark fruit to the young spirit. The result is an idiosyncratic spirit type that refuses to be called either whisky or beer.

Tasting notes

Nose

Toasted nuts, light dried fruit and pale caramel. The Oloroso cask adds a discreet nuttiness and a faint sherry aroma.

Palate

Soft and lightly nutty with dark raisins, a malty cereal note and a hint of chocolate. The sherry influence is subtle but present.

Finish

Short to medium length with light sherry tones and a dry, nutty close.

Did you know?

Oloroso is the driest and nuttiest style within the sherry family. While fino and amontillado are lighter and fresher, Oloroso adds a deeper, more complex sweetness — well-suited to lifting a young, unaged distillate.

Some whiskies give away their origin in brackets. "(HP)" on this label is Signatory Vintage's quiet nod, without breaking any confidentiality — a single sherry-cask experience from Orkney, bottled at full cask strength after seventeen years on oak.

Expert Description

Orkney 17 (HP) 2005/2023 Signatory Vintage 17 Year Old is a Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a single Oloroso sherry butt, bottled at cask strength 55.3%.

The name Orkney, paired with the bracketed hint (HP), is Signatory Vintage's discreet compromise: the distillery cannot be named, but the cask code DRU17/A63 and the nickname point unmistakably to Highland Park. The whisky spent its entire maturation in a single cask, number 27 — nothing blended in, nothing added.

The cask was filled on 7 May 2005 and bottled on 17 February 2023, yielding 612 bottles with natural colour and no further dilution.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Raisins, orange peel and dark chocolate sit on top of a light peat smoke, with a hint of sea salt hinting at its coastal origin.

Palate

Rich and sherry-driven, with fig, damson jam and a warm clove spice, underscored by a muted, mineral smokiness.

Finish

Long and warming, with lingering sherry sweetness, a light bitter cocoa note and a final hint of seaweed and salt air.

Same vintage, same secret, but a different cask — and therefore a whole different story. This Orkney 17 (HP) comes from Cask #8, a sister cask to the better-known releases, but with its own, more spiced expression.
